Well I just recently had a rather nasty shoulder surgery that is putting me out of commission for awhile. Here is what I was working on. I have just barely started weathering the railcars. Almost not at all. So please be easy on me. The loads are unfinished models that will eventually be re-painted and put back on the railcars. Both railcars are Ironside. Surprisingly I did not know that I even had these two kits
I not sure what this one was called (Lost the box, guessed on the instructions)
This one is their Low Sided Flatcar IR058 Yes it's supposed to be red, I will tone it way down.
Other project in the works. S.SP No 210 Was ordered but later cancelled. So some artistic license here
This will be at the center. 5Star Models with Tamiya turrets.

Sweet Lord!!!
That will be one heck of a diorama!
How are you going to display that? In a circle around the livingroom??
But seriously, if you would really build a full train, that would be massively awesome!!!
Maybe less armoured carts and more cargo?
As for the building; I have little/no experience or expertise on German railways, so what ever you show me, will ben good to me.
You might want to check on the decals on the red cart though. The are quite obvious.

Thanks for the kind words. The decals are the ones that came with it. The silvering is nowhere near as bad as the photo shows.
It is actually two different dios and time frames. Thae Armored Train is late 1945. Where the other is on a 4' X 8" sheet of plywood in my base3ment. It will grow to two or three sets of plywood. A railyard with two BR52 locomotives a WR 360 C14 (as a shunter) and a BR86. Maybe more locomotives not sure. One will be pulling a Tiger I and Pz. III M's (Das Reich) The second will be pulling seven Panther D's (Pz.Abt 52) A train with Pz. Iv G's.
